1770 The date Australia lost it's independence
 

Australia was "discovered" by Lieutenant James Cook in 1770 when he came
ashore at the place called 1770. Australia lost it's independence that day
as he claimed the place for the British.

Oh well, It could have been worse, we could have been invaded by American's
using an army of mass destruction, looking for weapons of mass destruction.

Attention to detail d-mac - cook first landed at botany bay, not at 1770.

Hey, that could still happen ... as long as that chimp is in charge.
You guys have any oil and ****? If so, we'll be happy to come in and
kill a few thousand of you to free you from your oppressive regime.

I have no particular objection with two provisos:
(a) The invasion happens in Queensland; and
(b) I get a live feed from the slam-cams of a couple of AGM-65s as
they cruise into an idiot troll's boat to clear the way for the LST's.

And I want a GOOD feed too; I want to be able to see the look on
Douggie's face just before impact. The one which says "Oh s**t! Maybe
I should have done something constructive with my life instead of just
making a fool of myself on Usene... [transmission ends]

Australia could not have lost it's independence to the Brits in 1770.

Australia as a nation didn't EXIST until it was CLAIMED by the Brits.

Then it was POPULATED by the Brits.

Typical Queenslander red-neck to forget that some other people had already
populated New Holland way before us whiteys got there.

have known what misery really is.......

First Fleet (the beginning of British occupation) -- 1778
Australia as a nation -- 1901

Captain Cook wasn't a Queenslander.
"New Holland" is a whitey term

I imagine sailing down the east coast of Australia, he'd have to pass
this spot on his way to Sydney. Yes? No?
